Reviews for Musashi Japanese Restaurant & Sushi Bar in Palm Desert, CA

The staff here is very attentive and courteous. We had dinner for 8 with some old friends we hadn’t seen in years. Needless to... say, we were a bit chattery and festive but the staff was patient and took great care of us. Food was excellent and we all lefthappily full. Thank you Musashi & staff! Read more

Great Sushi, Melts in your mouth. Same Original Crew since I first went there over 25 years ago. Price is average for a sushi... place, the Uni is very pricey at $30 but from Japan. Read more

So being Hapa, I feel like I have an unjustified authority about reviewing Japanese food. But full disclosure, I’m the only... Asian I the world allergic to any type of tuna so take it with a grain of salt. I’m sure the sashimi is delicious! But I’mkinda surprised that this place has been here for decades and I’ve finally tried it out. It’s such a great restaurant atpre-inflation pricing. There were no bad dishes here but the highlights were the seaweed salad and soft shell crab. Just an allaround excellent Japanese cuisine. Also it is white table cloth so show some respect and dress up a bit. It’s pretty patheticseeing dudes in gym shorts and backwards hats which in Japanese we call that; yabanjing. Read more

We enjoyed a great birthday dinner here. Sadly, I only remembered to take a pic of the green tea ice cream and mochi.

Decent food but MOST AWFUL STAFF behind the counter giving us tons of attitude. The owners were friendly but not their entitled... millennial employee allegedly of the opinion that guests exist purely for his personal convenience. My advice would be theowners chose their employees also based on their personalities. Now everyone is fit for customer service. Read more

Consistently fantastic! Attentive staff, amazing and fresh sushi all located in a central location.

Overall good quality sashimi, soba noodles a bit soft. Back again in 2022, soba is still too soft. Sushi rolls are good.

My family and I have been going here since I was little and it’s always a 10/10. Their sushi is so fresh and amazing also... recommend the chilean sea bass special. Warm and welcoming staff, Masao is the head sushi chef and he is so talented and kind.Highly recommend!! Read more
